after sandy and the nor'easter. we can have a quiet period through areas of the northeast. that would be nice. looks like that's heading our way. no big storms on the horizon, even through the next ten days. that's good. temperatures are cold this morning in the wake of that nor'east nor'easter. windchills in the 20s as far south as philadelphia, buffalo, and pittsburgh. everyone still without power, hopefully they're not in their homes. a little warmer than yesterday today. yesterday we were in the range -- we were heading into the 40s. today we should get into the 50s all the way from boston to hartford. we should take another couple inches off that snow pack. funny saying that this time of year. rest of the country, southeast looks cold and chilly to start. the storm in the northwest it the one we'll track through the weekend. we'll watch that on saturday. the worst of it will be heading into the midwest. could watch good storms from minneapolis through areas of nebraska. sunday, areas of rain. watch out in chicago during the day on sunday. possibly a watchoshout at time

turning back now to the destruction that is brought by sandy. the well known city of seaside heights, these pictures have become iconic instead of what used to be ike connick, that roller coaster is sitting in the atlantic ocean. michelle franzen is joining us now. i can only imagine how bad it looks from the air and now you're seeing it up close. >> reporter: yeah. we definitely had a chance to tour here. just to give you a ground look, this is an area where people would normally be walking on the boardwalk in the morning and running, sitting at the park bemp benches. but it's just ripped apart and just the force of the water, we heard stories of how quickly the water raced into this area. over there at the far end of the pier, you can see the aerial shots of that roller coaster and basically almost like a table cloth ripped from the dinner table is how sandy sort of took that boardwalk out from beneath that roller coaster. and so on the other side of it it's just flopped there in the atlantic ocean, just sitting there. it sort of plays tricks

the coverage for a while before, during and after sandy, especially after sandy has been very favorable to president obama. you would think that's going to help, and it's still going on. having chris christie as a de facto unintentional surrogate doesn't seem to hurt obama one bit. it probably seems to help him. >> what is so interesting, you said chris christie, de facto endorser of obama. you've got this new article exclusive from politico saying there were people on governor romney's team who believed that chris kri city was the vp choice almost until the very ending, and surprise it's ryan. isn't the timing interesting? >> it's a little too interesting. look, there are two ways to react. governor christie says i'm doing my job. the president is doing his job. we're working together and i'm being honest. you have to respect that. look at two different examples. haley barbour who went through katrina in mississippi says that's absolutely what governor christy ought to say, he is doing what he has to do and get off his back. and you have the underground voices of the romney campaign wh
